> Disabling Javascript and cosmetic filters doesn't make any sense.

it does for those concerned with their privacy - i recommend to my readers to disable JS globally and allow it per-host where needed

as for cosmetic filters, processing them consumes more CPU

also these are suggested settings based on my experience and tailored to fit the Firefox config guides i wrote - i didn't state they were better than everyone elses

I suggest providing a beginner whitelist at least that includes popular cdns and such. People without umatrix will most likely put themselves at risk by blanket-allowing on uncooperative sites when all they need to do is allow Cloudflare.
